To all lwhom 'it may con-cern:

yBeit known that 1, JOHN Dummy, 0f the township of Madison, in the county of Clarion, and State of Penn- Sylvania, have invented a newfand improved Mode of Preventing Breaehy Horses and Cattle from `Breaking and Jumping Fences; and I do hereby declare thatthe following is a fullv description thereof, reference *being had t0 the a mpanying drawings, (Figures 1, 2, and

'3,) herewith presented. p

The nature of my invention, wnioli I wish tov se eure by Letters Patent, consists of aN halter, A, with a blind, B, fastened over the eyes 'of the animal, extending down to the nose, with wire spring apassing over the blind, to protect the eye from injury, leaving suiicient light for the animal to see to walk and graze.

The benefit of this invention is that it does not confine the animal, that there is nodanger of injuringit's limbs in anyway, and that the animal can lie down and rest, and get up, withfas much ease as if it were not confined.

It is superior for its utility, being very light and handy, and can be carried by the animal, and be of very little inconvenience in travelling.

The blind, being fastened wah buckles@ @mi te.

removed with ease, While there isy no other invention of the kind that can be applied in the same manner.

e The nature of the invention is that the animal can not seeoneither side, nor` any great distanee ahead,

and hence vcannot see to break or jump over the fene. What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure' by Letters Patent, is4

The application of a blind (constructed v4in such a mannerv as is more fully described in the accompanying specification) to ahalter, to prevent breaehy horses and cattle from breaking or jumpingfenees.
